So who are they planning to sell it to ?
ReplyDeleteI don't think that India will be interested in buying any more diesel submarines...and the way and manner the chinese are building their own submarines ...
Not Pakistan as they are already in contact with germany for some fuel cell submarines
Indonesia, Algeria, Libya, Angola, Ethiopia, Uganda, Morocco, Botswana, Namibia, Mozambique and Burkina-Faso are in the picture, as well as countries in Latin America and Southeast Asia.
